CH.5 A Girl from France (Part II)
These two small dishes, Zheng Ke originally made them to fill his stomach, so the requirements were not high, and there was a shortage of materials, so they were made very casually. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, Catherine was very interested in these two dishes, especially tofu with shallots.
After blanching, the tofu has been removed from the bean fish, and then mixed with shallots and sesame oil, the whole dish looks elegant and innocent, and it is fragrant, smooth, tender and refreshing in the mouth.
Seeing Catherine holding a fork in her hand and eating the whole dish into her stomach like a storm, Zheng Ke didn't know what to say.
As a chef, the dishes he makes are liked by diners, which is the best praise for the chef's cooking skills, but now Zheng Ke is not happy at all, because the rice in his bowl has not been eaten much, but the two dishes have been swept away by Catherine.
"It's so full. Catherine touched her slightly bulging belly and leaned back in her chair contentedly, "I didn't expect that only two ingredients could make such a delicious dish." ”
"This is a traditional Chinese side dish, different trimmings will make the same dish have different flavors, each chef has a different understanding of it, and the dishes are also very different. ”
"Yes? I'd like to try other flavors of tofu with shallots. Catherine licked her tongue and looked at Zheng Ke with interest.
"No way. Zheng Ke flatly refused Catherine's request.
Catherine pursed her lips, and the next moment, tears would fall at any moment, and she muttered quietly, "I want to eat." ”
Why does this woman look like a little girl who doesn't grow up? Oh, she was originally a little girl, but Westerners develop relatively early.
"Actually, there is no tofu in the refrigerator anymore. Moreover, shallots mixed with tofu are not suitable for eating more, hmm...... There are some side effects that can affect the developing child. Zheng Ke explained.
"I'm not a child!" Catherine slapped the table hard, her face flushed for an instant, and she kept blowing on her hand—Catherine had verified Newton's third law with her own experience.
Soon, Catherine's face returned to normal.
"You're talking about the combination of protein, calcium and other ingredients in tofu and oxalic acid in green onions, which will produce calcium oxalate, right?
In such a short period of time, I can think of so much.
Zheng Ke found that he really couldn't treat Catherine as a little girl.
Nagi Senzaemon's original plan may have been just that he was afraid that the school would be too comfortable and that the students would not have a sense of competition. That's why I found these two people. This practice is like putting a catfish in a dead water tank, which can activate the survival ability of the small fish.
Zheng Ke can understand Nagi Senzaemon's approach, in "The Spirit of the Halberd", after eating Kohei Soma's egg fried rice, he admitted Kohei Soma, and part of the reason was that Kohei was regarded as a catfish.
It's just that Zheng Ke doubts that Catherine and Absolon are really just catfish?
There was no food, Zheng Ke could only eat the rice in his stomach dryly, while Catherine stretched and sat on the sofa on the side.
"By the way, isn't your brother coming back today?" After putting away the dishes, Zheng Ke looked at Catherine, who was holding her stomach and laughing, wondering what kind of TV it was that made the little girl so fascinated.
After my brother came to Japan, he went out every day and said that this is heaven, but he would come back every day for the night, but every day he would come back very late. By the way, Zheng Ke, do you know what a HOB is?" Catherine turned her head and asked Zheng Ke suspiciously.
“HOB?”
Isn't that the place where Issehui works? How does this girl know about this place?
Zheng Ke nodded, "It is a large food company, focusing on curry, and occupies half of the curry market in Japan. ”
A few days ago, Zheng Ke also bought curry food produced by HOB, and I heard that the two cute little girls on the cover are now in their twenties and thirties, and they are in their prime.
"My brother said he was going to HOB with Isshiki Hui, and he didn't say what it was. I woke up in the afternoon, thinking he had already returned. ”
"Your brother really has a wide range of hobbies. Zheng Ke laughed awkwardly twice.
Hearing Catherine's introduction to her brother, Zheng Ke remembered a person, yes, the person who grabbed the maid's wrist on the last day of normal business in the Western Highlights.
Black hair, blue eyes......
Zheng Ke finally knew why he thought Catherine was a little familiar, she was a little similar to the foreign boy.
"Your brother came to Japan at the end of May?"
"How do you know? You've seen him?"
"Uh, guess. Zheng Ke said casually. I didn't expect it to be that man, which would explain why he knew his cooking skills.
However, before that encounter, Zheng Ke had just had a halberd eating with Akane Kubomo, and his body was still very tired, and it was the last day of the Western Bright Spot business, so his mood was inevitably affected, and the whole person was not in the best state. There are definitely some flaws in the cooking.
Maybe that dish upset Absolon?
Just when Zheng Ke was thinking wildly, the mobile phone suddenly rang, and it was an email from Yishihui.
"Zheng Kejun, Ab Soren, an exchange student who just came to Polestar Liao, is with me now, but he was drunk and probably can't go back today. You'll take care of his sister. ”
What do you mean? Could it be that tonight, there are only two people in Polestar Liao, him and Catherine?
"By the way, how old is your brother?" Zheng Ke asked Catherine tentatively.
"16 years old?
"I didn't ...... What's the matter?"
Drinking at the age of 16 seems illegal in Japan, right? After all, he is still a minor.
"Just now Isshiki-kun sent a text message saying that they may not be back tonight. Zheng Ke thought about it, but still said Yishihui's email.
"Why?" Catherine frowned and looked at Zheng Ke in confusion.
"It seems that someone from HOB invited to dinner, but it was too late to come back. ”
Catherine listened to Zheng Ke's words, pouted, curled up her legs, and hugged her legs tightly with her arms. Although the TV has been showing funny cartoons like "Tom and Jerry", there is no smile on his face.
Zheng Ke saw that this was not a solution, and he couldn't let Catherine stay like this all the time.
"I'll tell you a story, do you want to hear it?" Zheng Ke asked tentatively.
"No, I'm not a little girl. Catherine pouted.
He also said that she was not a little girl, isn't this a tantrum? Zheng Ke still can't cope with this kind of little girl.
Zheng Ke could only continue to ask, "Cook another dish for you?" What do you want to eat?"
"I'm not interested, I'm full. Catherine also lost her appetite and flatly refused.
Well, after feeding this girl, she doesn't care about anything.
